Almost all cars have a wider front track than the rear as it helps in weight transfer. A-bodies from the factory came with a 58"+ or so front hub-to-hub measure and a rear drum-to-drum measurement of 57 1/8" with an 8 3/4. IIRC, the track width was even shorter for an 8 1/4 and 8 3/4. If you really wanted to handle, you'd throw fatter tires on the front than the rear as our cars are front heavy. But no one does that because it "kinda looks odd."
